So that's fairly minor myopia.

Eye training programs train eye muscles, it's not an issue of fine-tuning "brain software". You can train your eye muscles to compensate, somewhat, but the downside is that if you're e.g. just tired or stressed your vision degrades back to baseline.

Eye training programs train eye muscles,

Not only muscles directly at the eye but also at the back of the head.
